History
The city was created by the Dwarves of Olys Ardynn, who had lived underground for many years, since the years of the Dark War. They created the city with the help of the Dwarves of the Great Forest, who had become allies with them after the war. The roots of the Great Forest had extended deep into the mountains, and the Dwarves of the Great Forest had started to build their own city. The two Dwarves were able to show the strength of the alliance with the construction of the city. They built all sorts of statues, statues of kings, soldiers, and everything else. The people of the city worked together to create the city. The Dwarves of the Great Forest also wanted to make sure that their city was not forgotten, so they created a wall of trees around the city. That way, the city would be visible from the surface, but would not be spotted from below unless you knew were it was.
